Inspire Students at STEAM Summit Platinum Sponsor:

T he STEAM Summit encourages more than 1,700 middle and high school students to pursue science, technology, engineering, art, and math careers by connecting them to business and higher education institutions which offer STEAM courses in a highly interactive, hands-on format. The future success of the Southeast Minnesota economy depends on a well-prepared pipeline of students with the education and skills needed to keep the region’s business and industry competitive. This summit brings together business, higher education, local government, and our community to prepare students for an increasingly competitive global marketplace and to encourage interest in in-demand careers. “The STEAM Summit might seem like just a one-day event, but I have heard that for the students who attend, it is very often much more than that. It is an event that exposes students to new ways of being in the world and reinforces the power of paths that some students were previously hesitant to follow. The STEAM Summit matters, and I hope you will join me in opening this door to the future for the young people of our community,” Said Dr. Pekel, Interim Superintendent for Rochester Public Schools.
